We all know it's important to be green; recycle, buy local, re-use, etc. A lot of us live in cities where recycling is mandatory and farmer's markets dot every corner in the summer. But how much thought do we give 'being green" when it comes to sex toys?

I know I prefer rechargeable toys or at least rechargeable batteries. How about you? How green is your sex life?

I've never really given 'green' much thought. I suppose that it's something to think about.

I do the best I can, but when you don't have the money to be fully green it's tough. I just ordered rechargeable batteries and a charger for them. My next higher priced toy purchase will be a rechargeable toy. For now I'll just make sure to use rechargeable batteries.

First off, I am a packaging ninny. We have recycling bins up at school, so even if I don't have them at my current university-area residence, I'll just throw recyclables in to boxes and take them to a dorm's garbage room when I visit

First off, I am a packaging ninny. We have recycling bins up at school, so even if I don't have them at my current university-area residence, I'll just throw recyclables in to boxes and take them to a dorm's garbage room when I visit on-campus friends.

Also, I love things that are rechargeable! I checked the "most fun" option, but in all honestly, most of the vibrators I lust after are rechargeable or plug in to a wall. Also, like Epiphora, I use Eneloops in my battery-operated toys...actually, in just about all of my battery-operated equipment.

If a toy is perfectly sterile (glass, silicone, etcetera), or I always used a condom with it (my usual state of affairs) and barely used it, I'll give the toy away to my friends after it's been sanitized if I don't want it. I'd say Thing 1 and Thing 2 have 2 or 3 toys apiece that are things I just didn't have space for. I recycle my toys if they break unless they're made out of an odd material, in which case they have to go in to the trash.

I greatly prefer green things in my life (both for the environment and for my financial welfare), but if I can't get a green product, I just make due.

In our non-sex life, we are quite green, or at least we do the best we can within our means and the circumstances in our community. We are trying to do a better job with our sex toys. I am actually somewhat conflicted over disposing of some sex toys and the materials they are made from.

i don't recycle, because it's worse for the environment. but i definitely prefer toys that are made locally, because my family has been struggling with not being able to find jobs for a long time, and i'd like to help out the people in close areas to find jobs, if that makes sense.

Mostly I'm concerned about how body safe my toys are, not if they are "green". I do use re-chargeable batteries. When I buy toys, I try to make sure I really want them, and that they are of long-lasting quality so I'm not throwing them out when they melt/tear/break.
